“RICHARD DAWKINS?, the legendary private investigator?” asked Eric, in absolute shock“That's the one” replied Marko, confidently.“ARE YOU INSANE?!” asked his brother Jonathan, “I THOUGHT YOU SAID WE WERE BANKRUPT, WE CAN'T AFFORD HIM”“Relax Johnny, it's alright… I've got a plan”.Richard Dawkins was the undisputed, greatest detective that Reville had ever seen. He had burst into the scene of Reville's criminal investigations only five years ago.His origins are completely shrouded in mystery, because of this, no one knows where he came from or where he developed his seemingly superhuman investigative skills.He was also notoriously elusive, he loved to keep a low profile and wear a face mask when he walked around, because of this, very few, if any, even knew what he looked like. Despite his concealing of his face, it was obvious to Marko that he was young. Marko had actually met Richard Dawkins once before, when he was conducting an investigation into a fire that ripped through th

Dean escorted Mia to her room in the Golden estate, after he gave her a quick kiss goodnight, he exited the room, leaving Mia with her own thoughts.Mia fell on the bed, exhausted.She looked around the large room that surrounded her and asked herself why she felt so sad.Why did she feel so miserable after her parents and her family had cast her out of the house?, did she really love them that much?, after everything they had done to her.These questions consumed her mind as she tossed and turned on her bed.Taking a good look at the room she was in, made her even more confused about her feelings and emotions. Here she was at the Golden Estate, one of the most beautiful accommodations in the entirety of Reville, Dean was able to provide such a wonderful place for her… for them to stay at, so why was she not content with simply staying here with him.Mia sighed, and she got up from her bed to go take a bath, and while she was bathing, she continued to contemplate her current situatio
My Son-In-Law Is Secretly A Crime Lord Chapter 31 : Let's make a deal
The entire time Dean rode his motor bike down the highway, he was in deep thought.His mind flashed with pulses of anger, as the thought of him being the architect of his good wife's return to her horrible family, filled him with disgust.But he would have to suck it up, at least for the time being. But he needed to make sure that he would be there on the day the family's power dynamic flipped on its head, the day that Mia would stand above them, and finally make them all regret how they had treated her throughout her life.Dean finally arrived at his destination, it was the Shadow Acre, a place that Dean and Carlos had long since established as a suitable meeting spot for their more discreet conversation.Speaking of Carlos, as Dean entered the Shadow Acre and headed to his stall, he found Carlos waiting for him there.He had arranged a meeting with Carlos the previous night, as he wanted them to both have a full and honest discussion about all the crazy events that had transpired i
My Son-In-Law Is Secretly A Crime Lord Chapter 32 : A studious confrontation
Harry looked at the gun that he was holding in confusion. He pulled the trigger of the weapon a few more times, but it still refused to fire.“Don't bother, it won't shoot” said a voice coming from his front.Harry couldn't see the person who was speaking properly, as the man stood in front of a nearby light source, that cast a shadow on his face.Harry quickly reached into his pocket and pulled out a glass case, he then opened the case, retrieved his glasses from it, and put them on.With his eyesight now considerably improved, he once again pointed his shotgun at the intruder, and squinted slightly to see who said intruder actually was.Seeing that his gun was still not working, Harry thought that perhaps he had forgotten to chamber a round, so he cracked the shotgun.“Don't bother trying to shoot me Harry, I know you keep a shotgun underneath your table, so as a cautionary measure, I made sure to remove all the bullets” said Dean, as he retrieved six shotgun shells from his pocket,
My Son-In-Law Is Secretly A Crime Lord Chapter 33 : The frustrations of negations
Harry burst into an exaggerated laughter, as soon as Dean reveals that the documents he gave to him were those of the Imperium contract.Wiping a tear from his eye, he asked, “really Timothy?, the Imperium contract?, is that really the best that you can do?” “I take it you are not impressed with the contract?” asked Dean.“Of course I am not impressed with the contract” replied Harry.“I thought you wanted to have your house fixed?” asked Dean, “this contract will provide enough funds to assist you in doing it”“Oh Timothy, that contract is not nearly enough, not even close” responded Harry, “it would take a lot more than a couple of million dollars to reverse the damage you have done to his family” added Harry.Dean's smile refused to go away, instead, he simply asked, “but what if we can find to not only repair the damage done to your house, but also to offer you an opportunity, that you can use to raise the status of the entirety of the Hamilton family?” asked Dean.Harry stood an
My Son-In-Law Is Secretly A Crime Lord Chapter 34 : The new deal
“What are you talking about Harry?!” asked Dean, almost losing his temper in frustration.“I'm pretty sure you heard me Timothy” replied Harry, folding his arms.“Yes Harry, I did hear you… when you said that you'd approve of me becoming a member of the Hamilton family, if Mia and I got a contract with Imperium!” yelled Dean.As much as Harry hated the fact that Dean had the audacity to yell at him, he didn't complain.He understood that he was frustrating the young man, and that amusement was greater than any offence he would have taken towards Dean's words. “Yes Timothy, I do remember saying that if you and Mia got Hamilton construction a contract with Imperium, I would let you become a member of the family… but that's not what happened, is it Timothy?” asked Harry.“What are you talking about?, of course that's what happened” responded Dean, now getting confused.“No it isn't Timothy… Mia got the contract, not you” replied Harry with a mischievous grin.“Yes… but I helped her, she

Dean stepped out of Harry's study after finalizing the deal.He found Sophia, close to the study door, talking to one of the family's workers who were supposed to be cleaning the house.Once she spotted him, she was shocked and confused, “YOU!” she yelled, pointing at Dean and abandoning her conversation with the family worker.Dean then turned to look at her, and then lowered his head slightly, “good evening Mrs Hamilton” he said, smiling broadly.“Don't you dare good evening me young man, how dare you show your face here again, after what you and that useless wife of yours did here last night?” asked Sophia, snapping back at Dean.“My apologies ma'am, I can tell that you are still quite shaken by last night's events, so I understand why you would be surprised to find me here” said Dean politely.“Surprised?, I am more than just surprised Timothy, I am livid… you better get out of my house right now before I call the police!” yelled Sophia.“Calm down Sophia, that will not be necessa

Chapter 110 : War of the elites
Dean awoke at the Hamilton family residence.Neither he nor Mia had gotten any real amount of sleep, as the entire family was completely freaking out over what had happened to them last night.What's worse, their panic became even greater when they saw Mia return to the house without Dean, in a car riddled with bullet holes.Dean couldn't help but stare at the recording box Richard had sent to him several days earlier.The box had contained an emergency message from his father, a message for his two sons, informing them of all the events that were transpiring between the Bradson family, and the other members of the four heavenly kings of Reville.Richard had gotten the box through his years of investigating the Dean of their family, and it was the key to how he had acquired all the information he told Dean about.Dean knew that the danger hadn't passed from last night, he could feel it in his gut.However, after everything th

Chapter 109 : Assasination Attempt
"Well well well, if it isn't crippled Mia" said Raymond as he slowly approached Mia's table.Dean turned to stare at the man in anger, not appreciating how he had just spoken to his wife."What the hell do you want Raymond?" asked Mia, annoyed, while also trying to not escalate the conversation."What's the matter Mia?, I mean you no harm... I'm just here to congratulate you on getting your legs back, I mean when I heard it had happened I couldn't believe my ears, but I guess now that I see it... my eyes do not deceive me" replied Raymond, his voice maintained a mocking tone throughout his reply."Well thanks a lot Raymond, you've seen me... I've got my legs back, so please leave me alone" pleaded Mia, as she desperately tried to get the man away from her.However, her attempts proved futile, as Raymond wouldn't let up.Chuckling lightly, Raymond said, "Even after everything your family has done, you still end up here, at the cor

Chapter 108 : A high stakes party
Christopher Newton sat on his office chair with his face buried in his palms.This was absolutely not how he thought everything would be going one year later.Ever since the assasination of his father by those unknown culprits, it seemed like his entire world had been turned upside down.Culprits whose identities, he still did not know.This ached him in his heart more than he had ever thought possible.He had hoped that he would have been able to uncover their identities by now, but they were like ghosts... invisible to everyone and everything.It seemed like everything that could have gone wrong had ended up going wrong, and now he was losing everything he thought he'd have by now.After the destruction of the Phillips security building, Christopher had seen the perfect chance to increase his power, and the power of his entire family by essentially buying out the Phillips family.However, due to Eric Phillips stubb

Chapter 107 : The hunt for legacy
Dean awoke from his slumber, his head pounding heavily from all the thinking he did the previous night.He looked to his side to see Mia lying there, sleeping happily without a care in the world, and as much as he had always promised himself that he would do everything in his power to keep it that way, he slowly began to feel like perhaps he wouldn't have enough power to protect Mia as well as he would have hoped.Dean looked at his watch, and the time was 5:17 am, usually, Dean would start doing his routine exercises at this time, but instead he remained in bed thinking about everything that had happened over the last three days.The shocking revelation that Richard Dawkins, the man he had just been trying to kill two days ago was his brother, still haunted him.It felt like a dream, one he could never be wake up from.After Richard Dawkins had explained to Dean that he was his brother, both men had realized that there was no longer any point

Chapter 106 : The big reveal
Dean couldn't believe what he had just heard Richard say, and by the look on Richards face, even he was just as confused as he was.Even Carlos had quickly walked over to where his boss and Dawkins were, so that he could confirm if he had indeed heard what he thought he heard "What did you just say?" asked Dean as he tightened the grip on his blade lightly.Seeing that Dean had let his guard down, Richard quickly knocked the knife out of his hand and pushed him away.Dean slammed his fist on the ground the moment he saw that Richard had once again escaped from him."OH, is that what this was?... A TRICK!?" yelled Dean, enraged with himself that he had fallen for such a cheap trick.However, unlike before, Richard wasn't trying to run away anymore.Instead, he just stood a few feet away from Dean, clutching injured shoulder, and staring at Dean.Dean noticed this and was slightly taken aback by it, but even more than

Chapter 105 : The battle of the warehouse
Quickly stepping out of his hiding place with two guns in hand, Richard Dawkins was now face to face with his two assailants, pointing a gun at each of their faces. Speaking of their faces, Richard could immediately see why his assailants didn't seem to show any reaction to the smoke bomb he used.They both had on Guy Fawkes masks, and Richard believed that they probably had a sort filtration system, hidden within the mask that allowed them to still breathe properly when the gas filled the warehouse."So Comet sent only two men to take my life... you must not think very highly of me" said Richard, trying his best to pretend to not be intimated by the two large men.He was no small man himself, but seeing the two large men in front of him, barely even flinching despite having a gun pointed as both of their heads was certainly unsettling."Oh, do not sell yourself short Richard Dawkins... the very fact that the two of us are here is proof

Chapter 104 : Taunt and effect
Seeing what was going on, Richard quickly headed towards a large crate containing Sky Quazer drone parts, so he could hide and wait for whatever came next."Come out Richard Dawkins, I don't really have time to play games with you" said a masculine voice which could be heard at the very end of the warehouse.Respond to this, but he could tell by the man's voice that he was still relatively far away, so in his mind, he still had some time to think up an escape plan."Stop wasting everyone's time, Dawkins, you might think you're hiding, but you're not" the masculine voice said again.Richard didn't respond, and at this point, he actually started to wonder why his assailants were talking so much.He still needed to find a way to navigate around this warehouse from this box he hid behind, that way, perhaps he could find a way out of his current situation.Suddenly, the masculine voice could be heard sighing loudly in the distance."Yo

Chapter 103 : Anticipated Set-up
Following the map closely, with the blueprint carefully tucked away in his pocket, Richard was led to a seemingly abandoned set of warehouses at the outskirts of the city. The warehouses most definitely belonged to Comet, as he could see their logo plastered everywhere, but he wasn't exactly sure what Comet was using them for. He found a set of thick bushes in a corner, where he decided to observe his surroundings from, as he didn't want to be ambushed by any unknown assailants. The region seemed void of life, but was littered to the brim with scores of machine parts, but Richard was too far away to tell what machines these were. Quickly becoming unsatisfied with his position behind the bushes, Richard decided, after maintaining his position for over 30 minutes, and still not noticing any sign of life, that he would move around to Investigate the area. Once he did this, he began observing all the broken
